Or save the expense of fitting and finishing a skeleton buttplate and have someone with the skill, like Dave Trevallion, fit a leather covered pad. That would definitely be my second choice and way above a leather faced pad.

That would be the issue. Repro plates and Galazan plates are available in the correct 0 frame stock size. However, those plates are thinner than original Parker plates. It may be possible to find a correct 0 frame original Parker plate but you might have to look hard for one.

That is Glenn Fewless, a forum member and poster here. Glenn will make a skeleton butt plate of damascus sheet metal or he will make a Parker correct butt plate to size of mild steel. I've posted photos of Glen's work here before, including his butt plates , and he is a friend of Doug Mann the stockist.

Glenn may be contacted through the member's list.

Or you can just buy that damascus skeleton butt plate listed on Gunbroker.com directly from me as I'm the one that has it listed. How many of your neighbor's have a damascus skeleton butt plate for sale?

I doubt any of my neighbors even own a gun, this old cow town has turned into a haven for left wingers.
